Spider-Man 3 - Limited Lenticular Edition Steelbook Blu-ray

The first 2 movies were excellent and I expected a lot from this one this one and although it is a little below par it is in no way a lousy movie.Many Marvel readers would have had their own preconceptions about this one. The Venom character especially is a firm favourite and, like the Surfer in the recent FF movie, it can backfire in some people's eyes if it is not done right.The Sandman is one of Marvel's longest running villains, and over the years he has shown different sides to his nature so the idea of his redemption is nothing new. I do feel the twist with his involvement in Uncle Ben's death was an unnecessary diversion and his updated origin I have to agree with some reviewers is just plain daft. It was nice to see him appear in the classic 1960's striped shirt outfit though and Thomas Haden Church is outstanding.Harry Osborn returns as a new homicidal Green Goblin who also undergoes redemption by the end of the film, James Franco also stands out in this role. Having both Mary Jane and Gwen Stacy appear was a good idea, but it lacks the impact of their comic book characters.Photographer Eddie Brock's hatred of Peter Parker after his dismissal from the Daily Bugle adds an extra twist and when he is taken over by the alien symbiote you know it will end in fireworks.There are so many good background characters here, J.K.Simmons is superb and is the embodiment of JJJ at his usual ranting self, other Bugle regulars Betty Brant and "Robbie" Robertson and Willem Dafoe is back in a Norman Osborn flashback cameo.The three villain idea has been derided as cramming too much in and losing impact. There is a grain of truth there but the action scenes are very well handled and the way the Sandman's CGI transformation is portrayed is first rate.The second disc is absolutely crammed with extra documentaries and is well worth watching.If I had one major grumble it is that I had hoped the Lizard would appear in this movie with Dr. Connors being in place since the first movie, surely a fourth movie is not too much to ask for. The beauty of the Spider-Man franchise is the vast array of villains and supporting characters from over 40 years to choose from, please don't stop now.

Ordered to binge watch all the Spidermans. Good one but not the best

If I remember correctly it was around August last year when I managed to see the awesome trailer for the third spiderman movie. Needless to say I couldnt wait to see it hit the big screen. To be honest, I have seen the film at least five times already, its that good!!So what made this third spiderman film so good? The Villians what else!!Well it picks up from the second film nicely (Harry Osborne wanting revenge and becoming the New Goblin deserves; an Oscar for his acting alone) with two extra villians The Sandman (Thomas Haden) who I think was fantastic in every way and of course Spiderman's ultimate nemesis Venom (Topher Grace), who does his best but doesnt impress much as Venom.And of course theres the familiar love triangle between parker, osborne and Mary Jane as usual, but this time it goes one step further with Peter transforming to the dark side hence the fantastic black spiderman suit!!And yet theres more, sub plots involving Peter's Uncle Ben from the first movie and a new female cast which gets up close and personal with spidey!!I could on and on with this film, but every movie has its flaws and unfortunatly spiderman 3 is not perfect in any way either. Firstly most spiderman fans will not appreciate the long running time, and then theres the unfinished story about the black goo, how it got there and what it's true purpose is, Venom (despite looking just like its cartoon counterpart without the bulkiness) only gets about twenty minutes of screen time and not surprisingly its the last twenty minutes of the film. Also theres not much time to explore the darker spiderman character, because it all happens too quick and ends too soon.Still the film deserves its five stars because it made me smile, laugh and almost (I did say almost) break down in tears by the end and there arn't many superhero films out there that can do that. I can understand though why some fans wont like it, but as I mentioned earlier if you are a diehard spiderman fan, you wouldnt notice the running time as the film hardly pauses for breath.It is a shame though about Venom, I would have preferred it if they had just the Sandman and the New goblin for this third movie and then the fourth film would be only based on Venom and of course the dark spiderman side story.Oh well never mind, I better stop waffling;Five stars deservedly!!!

I wanted watch the movie, it was really good loved the movie

There's a man dressed as a spider that runs around the city

Perfect condition. BRILLIANT MOVIE, honestly I bought it because I lost my old Spider-Man DVD’s and it was FANTASTIC the nostalgia in its self was fun but not as fun as watching Spider-Man 3. It was so interesting and I could write a literal essay right now but I do t want to spoil anything😂

The bad spirit can get to us based on our pride, selfishness, no matter who we are or what we have done before. The only way to get out of that bad spirit is to be close to the voice of God.

Grand kids loved it
